Oriole fans. Who is the player? The other is a long shot. Old photo I picked up years ago.

The player below is wearing a Cardinals jersey from 1949-1950.

Thanks, that helps. He looks like Ken Boyer, but he didn't play until 1955

No ideas???

I suspect you'd have to take a deep dive into team photos from that era. The Cardinals made some nice premiums which are easy to find. I took a quick look, but didn't come up with anything. It's also possible he's a minor leaguer — the Cardinals had about 20 affiliates during that time, and about half of were named the Cardinals. I'm actually trying to identify some minor leagues caps from that era, and it's a real challenge. But if you keep looking, I'll bet you find out who he is. That's been my experience. The information is out there just waiting to be discovered.

This might be a shot in the dark, but I see some resemblance here.

That looks close. I will have to find other pictures of him. Thanks

It looks like him. I need to find a photo of him. His cards are not very good.

Top photo is most likely the St. Louis Browns, And I'll go along with Chris that the Cardinal uniform is minor league.
